Metronomy - Love Letters

Review by Luke Beardsworth

There’s a nagging feeling that those derivative misses aren't so much accidental misfires as born out of a writer keen to remain free of the pressures of success.»

Metronomy return with a stunning album recorded at Toerag Studios. Metronomy's new songs are bold and ambitious, but the sweet spirit they've always been known for still lingers. Melancholy still lurks in those hooks; loneliness still gleams along their edges. These are songs that carry you up and down in tides of feeling, in waves of pure sound. 'I'm Aquarius' was inspired by Diana Ross and The Supremes' 1969 album, 'Let The Sunshine In', full of psychedelic atmospheres, and gorgeous backing vocal shoop-shoops. 'Call Me' is driven by glittering organ lines, and the exhilarating title track, with a four-to-the-floor beat, skipping between Motown and Northern Soul.
